Hello Lara

I have read its in all diet drinks but i avoid them anyway. The

strange thing is that i drink a lot of sprite (about 3 or 4 times a

week) but that contains Sodium Benzoate (E221). i was less affected on

sprite than on pepsi max.

Unless the combination of the aspartame and benzoate was the issue?

i have googled his name thanks (easy to do when you're with googlemail

lol.

What drinks are allowed in your family? What should i drink when im

out with friends in the pub? i dont drink much alcohol except vodka

occasionally.

Appletiser is harder to find in the uk. My local supermarket stopped

stocking it and it only has citric acid added to it and thats safe.

Peartiser is only sold at my college.

Has anyone here made their own safe fizzy drinks? Whats the best way

and do you have any recipes please?

thanks
